On a very short walk through woods behind my house, I picked up two wood ticks and two deer ticks today. I walk this particular trail at least once a week and have never picked up any ticks on it--or at least not that I have seen. The two deer ticks would have gone unseen today if the two wood ticks hadn't alerted me to the need to look more closely at little black specs. Apparently ticks are out in force, and appropriate precautions should be taken.

P.S. I saw no birds migrating overhead, but I did glimpse a couple of Ruffed Grouse that flushed well before I got near them.
